Sloane StreetSloane Street is a major London street in the Royal Borough of
KensingtonKensington and Chelsea which runs north to south, from Knightsbridge
to Sloane Square, crossing
Pont StreetPont Street about halfway along. Sloane
Street takes its name from Sir Hans Sloane, who purchased the
surrounding area in 1712. Many of the properties in the street still
belong to his descendants the Earls Cadogan, via their company Cadogan
Estates.
Sloane StreetSloane Street has long been a fashionable shopping street, especially
the northern section closest to Knightsbridge, which is known
informally as Upper Sloane Street. Since the 1990s Sloane Street's
status has increased further, and it is now on a par with Bond Street,
which has been London's most exclusive shopping street for two
centuries. The street has flagship stores for many of the world's most
famous brands in fashion.

In popular culture[edit]
Sloane Street, along with Sloane Square, also gives its name to
"Sloane Rangers", originally applied to the stereotypical kind of
young upper class English ladies seen in the area. The expression was
roughly the female equivalent to the term "Hooray Henry", used to
describe brash, upper-class young English public school boys, although
this term is not geographically restricted and is used all over the
UK.
